    Thought I'd start a new thread where we could post info. on the upcoming visit of these teams to the US... JuveLeoRules seems to have good inside information about these 2 teams (including practice times, places etc..). Feel free to post related info. on this thread.

    Just some new info...I will confirm at a later date....AC Milan will be training at Pingry Prep School in a believe it's Lamberstville, NJ...regardless...they usually stay at the Somerset Hills Hotel in Basking Ridge NJ when not in Manhattan...this is the same hotel where the Italian NT stayed during WC94, Juventus has stayed there as well... I will confirm these details once I know for sure...

    My neighbor is the Italian Translator for A.C. Milan when in the States and he dishes me some of this great info....

    We don't like to tell the Italians...then we can't get close to Rui Costa...;)

    Nothing is confirmed yet, but I will make it a point to post the details here...

    Last year they had practice sessions open to people that bought tickets to the game....not sure if they are doing anything like this again since Champions World is no longer running these matches...

    as a matter of fact he is; I just spoke to him today because adidas screwed up some future orders we had with them (which included the new Benfica jerseys) with the change of ownership. I think he'll be able to work around this problem so I could have more Benfica jerseys in the store soon. The ones I have there now came from Portugal

    The game at Giants Stadium is on the 31st...but if you are in Mass on the 24th you can probably invite Mourinho as Chelsea are playing at Gillette Stadium...on that day...

    JuveLeo, you seem to know a lot of people from the local soccer scene. Weren't you the one that played at Rutgers Newark?

    spoke w/ my adidas rep. He doesn't know whether he will get any tickets. If he does get some tickets he won't forget about Pegasus... Say a little prayer :)
